Our Students Get Jobs — Good Ones.
As a student at St. Edward's, you practice what you learn in the classroom. Last year alone, students completed more than 65,000 hours in internships. And they worked for a variety of companies and community groups, everything from the Lance Armstrong Foundation and the Mexican Consulate's Office to GSD&M Advertising and Motorola. Meet four business students who have turned internships into full-time jobs. Internship Spotlight
